Silent Hill 2 Hints
Cockroaches
1 of 4: Found everywhere, just like the real thing. In the Beginner Action level they're harmless; as the difficulty increases, they get nastier, biting your toes and holding you in place so you can't run away. They don't trigger the radio static, but they do have a distinctive buzzing clicking sound that gives them away.
2 of 4: All the same, in most of the places you encounter them they won't be too much of a problem because all you have to do is run away. The only time they become a real issue is in the room full of bugs.
3 of 4: As with real cockroaches, the best way to kill them is stomp, but they move so fast that's hard. You also don't want to waste ammo on them if you don't have to; they're just cockroaches, for pete's sake.
4 of 4: If you really need to kill cockroaches, put your gun away and hit Action to stomp on them. You have to be close before you try this, of course.
